EDITOR PULASKI CITIZEN M Y
attention has just been called to an
editorial in your last issue, refer
ing to the excitement among the
colored people here on Sunday,
Sept. 18th, caused by the report
that o crowd of white men had as
sembled on the turn pike between
Pulaski and Elkton to stop bus
filled with colored men, women and
children, returning FROM Baptist
association, in which you have 500
ken of the "colored soldiers" and
published some things which do
them great injustice. AS their
commanding officer it becomes my
duty to affirm that your informant
vas mistaken when he said the
''dTum was ready to beat the call
to the armory, and that one man
was actually seen on the streets
with his gun"
No such action was contemplated
and no member of my company at
tempted to take up arms for action.
They will never attempt to use
force except under orders from
proper authority, or otherwise
abuse their power, or become a
menace to the peace and good and
good order Of society. They know
that it is NJ part of their business
to interfere with the functions Of
government, nor will they suffer
their presence here to be made an
occasion Of encouragement to VIC
lations OF the laws. Our arms are
for the protection and maintenance
Of the civic powers, aud then only
under orders from the commander
in-chiet. No man is allowed to take
bis gun from the armory except
under orders and accompanied by
an officer. The keys to the gun
case are in the hands of command
ing officer and orderly sergeant,
Silas Rhodes, and all arms are re
moved and returned in the pres
ence Of one or other Of US. The
good people of the county need
have no apprehension that this or
ganiZation is o menace to their
peace. We shall endeayor rather TO
prove worthy of your increased
esteem.
I have the honor to be your most
obedient servant,

Capt. commanding Rlchland r hes.

Mr. Gamblers Unfairnass.

Mr.. Gambler used the columns OF
the Christian Advocate last week to
lambast Martin College. We have
tried him sufficiently 20 see that he
does not intend that the readers OF
the Advocate shall have fair and
honest knowledge of the matter. 1t
clearly appears that the purpose is
to rule or ruin, if be can, and 1t is
Improbable TO aggravate him to
further dlstort the case and poison
the Methodist mind. We cannot
reach his readers to correct his un-
fairness and he knows it and takes
advantage of it. One great living
fact stands ont above all the wreck
and rubbish that is piled and heap
ed up to obscure the issue: The
conference has no more right in
morals to the college than the holy
see has, and if it takes advantage of
technicality or forced construction
OF law to seize 1t, it will com prom
Use it's own honor. We have made
no fight on the conference. Indi-
vidUals have done all this havoc.
The church is not responsible.
When the facts are laid before the
conference assembly Of honest,
christian preachers they cannot af-
ford to accept the property eveo if
it should be decreed to them by the
courts, because it ia not honest to
take property that doesn't belong to
yoa. The conference is honest.
ar. Candier's last article is studded
with errors and MEASUREMENTS that
we have corrected a dozen times and
it is useless to correct them again
because he persists in restatlng

EDUCATIONAL DEPARTMENT
j. j. zUCCARELLo, EDITOR.
WHAT SHALL WE TEACH THE BOYS TC
prS

BE?
Practically it is an easy matter
to decide in what business or pur-
suit man can make the best use
Of his gifts and powers-for it takes
most of US one life-ti to ascertain
what we are not fit for and to SUP
pose we have ascertained what we
could do to the best advantage If we
had our life to live over again. The
parent, the teacher, the clergyman,
are often asked for advice as to
what boy shall become. 1t is a
very difficult matter for advice
more SO than the ownership of dis
puted property or the restoration
Of peace among quarreling neigh
bors. 1t depends on thoroughly
knowing the boy-as well ss he
knows himself or even better for
accurate Self-knowledge is rare al
any age, and rarest among the
young. The scriptures tell us that
the race is not to the swift, nor the
battle to the strong, nor favor to
men of skill; but time and CHARGE
happeneth to all alike. The Duke
of Wellington, when describing
Waterloo, declared that it could
never be predicted how battle
would result, so much depended on
circumstances. So it is with the
boys; so much depends on the cir
cumstances brought to bear on their
future lives.
The teacher usually knows a boy
as well as his parents do. The
teacher, as a true friend, ehonld
persuade boy and parents to take
the best course-and should as
strongly dissuade from any course
evidently not best. The teacher
owes that as debt to his profess
sion and to the public.
Give the boys q chance to develop
what latent power that is IN them
Encourage them by just apprecia
ton Of their work, whether it be
great or little, and convince them
that they will never know in what
ever business in life they will sue
coed until they try. The world
loses immensely from the fact that
many never try. Grsy's Elegy ad
mirably states it:
"Full many e gem Of purest ray serene
The dark unfathomed caves of ocean BEAR
So the emergencies of war or o.
peace often roll to the surface of ar
excited community or state or ma
ton the brightest gems in the coro
net of its history-men of power
wisdom, skill, courage, zeal-men
who otherwise would have lived ant
died unknown to the world.
1t ehould be the teachers great
est glory to discover veins of gol.
den talents, veins brilliant with The
diamonds ray, and utilize his WORK
for the public good, inspiring, cul-
tivating, directing the young MIND
and soul into the noblest realm o
manhood which it is able to en-
large and strengthen and adorn.

Two Houston Men Invest s /

The story of how The Louisiana State
Lottery Company deals out fortunes
! every month is known far and near
Chances in the drawings are eagerly
taken by all classes. How many per-
sons have been suddenly made rich by
this Institution would be hard to tell
the number would almost seem incredi-
BILE. 1t can be safely said, however,
that residents OF every state in the I'm
ion have profited by it. One of the
many made happy by the last drawing
was w. II. Anthony, a dairyman OF
Houston, Texas, who held one tenth of
No. 50,255, which drew the capital
prize OF sl50.O00, collected by Wells,
Fargo q Co.'S express through the firm
of 4, w, House of Houston.
The other tenth of this ticket was
held by Mr.. George II. Zapp OF the
same place. This gentleman accompa-
MED by his son arrived in the city
Wednesday night and on presenting
his ticket at the company's office on
the following morning was handed a
check on the New Orleans National
Bank. He was greatly in need of the
money and on the receipt OF the news
OF his good luck he fairly wept with
joy. Mr.. Zapp is a native of Germany
but for the past eight years has made
his home in Houston where he has been
clerking in a cotton press. He is q
large, fine looking man, % years of age,
and has wife and three children. lie
has not decided what use he will make
of his newly found fortune, but will
look out for some profitable way Of in
vesting it. Mr.. Zapp has visited New
Orleans before and will remain here
several days to renew old acquaint an
ces.
Apropos of Mr.. Zspp's visit to this
city it might be mentioned that his
nephew, MIR. Orsini Zapp, of Round
Top, Texas, came here on similar err
rand in May, 1885. He was also the
winner OF $4,000. The money he put
out in land and stock in Fayette coun-
ty, Texas. To-day he is one OF the most
prominent farmers in that section OF
the country, and is blessed with a hap
py family and has all the comforts of
life. An investment of 81 in The Louis
lana State Lottery started him on the
road to prosperity.-New Orleans Plea

Brief, And to The Point.

Dyspepsia is dreadful. DisOrdered
liver is misery. Indigestion is foe to
good nature.
The human digestive apparatus is one
Of the most complicated and wonderful
things in existence. 1t is easily put
out OF order.
Greasy food, tough food, sloppy food,
bad cookery, mental worry, late hours,
irregular habits and many other things
which ought not to be, have made the
American people a nation of dyspeptics.
But Green's August Flower has done
a wonderful work in reforming this sad
business and making the American peo-
pie SO healthy that they can enjoy their
meals and be happy.
Remem NO happiness without
health. But Green's August Flower
brings health and happiness to the
dyspeptic. Ask your druggist tor a
bottle. Seventy-five cents.

An Infamous Outrage.

To put an offender against mum
cipal law in the common jail among
criminals and mean Ten is an in
famous and ,neXcusable outrage.
The corporation of Pulaski ought to
have q station houss where its Of
tenders can be confined. A man
may offend the municipal law with
ont being g criminal himself, and
TO take lin by force and turn him
in among filthy criminals is dis
graceful and outrageous. The Off
GERS are not to blame for they are
directed to do SO, but TIE board OF
aldermen are culpahle for permit
ting it. We call upon the board to
prepare a prison for its offenders.
If they fail the first man whom
they thrust into the jail should
sue for damage ana he ought tc
have it. The corporation has 10
right to infict such disgraceful
punishment on municipal offenders.
